Hi, the comment holds some validity in this particular case since darktable can't losslessly crop a JPEG file, but other tools can. If the original poster ended up just cropping (and not rotating) most files, something like cropgui[1] would actually yield better image quality.
(Obviously this is an extreme edge case and I fully support the solution with the modifier key proposed in the other thread. I just added this for future reference.) cheers, Simon [1] https://github.com/jepler/cropgui Am 18.02.19 um 14:49 schrieb Moritz Mœller: > On February 17, 2019 23:01:58 David Vincent-Jones <david...@gmail.com> > wrote: >> >> Although darktable handles JPG images very well, I think that its >> primary market was targeted towards users who shoot RAW [...] >> > That's a typical developer answer.
